Photo: Alabama To Wear Decal Honoring Mal Moore

Alabama will be paying tribute to its late athletic director Mal Moore with a decal on its helmet for the 2013 season. Moore, who unfortunately passed away this offseason from pulmonary issues, worked at Alabama for nearly 50 years.

ESPN’s Alex Scarborough was the first to tweet out the news.

We absolutely love the way the Alabama “A” was inserted into the name “MAL”. It’s a pretty clever way of honoring a man who dedicated so much of his life to the university.
